A network dedicated to developing and showcasing the Asian Australian screen scene through events, social media and a range of other activities.

Background:

The Asian Australian Film Forum and Network (AAFFN) is an exciting and empowering new network that aims to showcase Asian Australian films and screen talent both on and behind the screen, including Asian Australian actors, producers, directors, writers, screen artists and film scholars. Additionally, we are also keen to create inclusive spaces and generate cross-over dialogues and broader conversations with a range of Australians who work with and support this community.

Along with film screening events, our aim is to bring together and develop a national network of creative practitioners, educators and cultural community workers, industry people, community groups, students and academics, bloggers and film fan ‘zine makers, creators of youtube and new media content, and both emerging and established artists looking for peer networking via discussions, workshops and other collaborations. Special thank you to Matt Huynh for our official artwork ‘Lion Dancers’ and ‘Audience’.
